Because it's currently allowed. There isn't much of yet, but we'd like it to be cut off now before the site gains more traction. There was a lot of it on FA before it was finally banned.

Was on the other thread about this one, but this seems to have better arguments.

Quite a few artists are already refusing to use the site because cub porn is allowed, and I don't blame them. I'd really like this site to do well, it has so much potential, but I could likely end up dropping it as well if they don't do something about it.

That last one is a big one, definitely. I don't think there's really a consistent form of tagging that people who post cub porn stuff do, so it's such a wild shot if you're going to run into it or not.

This is probably the most solid answer, at least for how I feel on it as well.


We can back and forth for weeks on legality by country and fight over morals, but I have already been seeing it as a deal-breaker for several artists. And for a site like this has been putting so much good quality work, and support, and responses to the community (that alone we haven't felt much of from certain sites...), so much good effort here that some are going to choose to walk away from as long as this is still allowed on the site. And as much as I want to continue to encourage and support FN, I don't blame them.


I've also seen a few people try to bring up "slippery slope" arguments. "If you ban cub porn, then they'll try to ban vore/TF/whatever next!!" I honestly can't think of a time I've seen that happen on a major art site...? And you can still have those other kinks anyways. Without. Sexualizing. Kids.

Was going to make a post about my experience with shouts, but I didn't know about notifications from just mentioning names here. I'm still getting used to many of the features, but honestly yeah, that kind of makes shouts unnecessary. Just *some* kind of quick-contact feature without going through private messages is fine, I would imagine.
